I have more respect for Burley who hasn't materialised into a balloon. Also, Burley got closer to winning the Premier League with Ipswich than any manager has with Liverpool. That is a FACT. |

Yeah but Scholes doesnt think it matters where you finish, its whether you made a challenge or not... |

So Liverpool finishing second means they've put up a bigger title challenge than a fifth-finishing Ipswich does it? NO. |

I remember that season well, they were in and around the top 3 for large periods of the season but faltered towards the end. They finished 14 points off the top eventually and 4 points off second. Not even Allardyce, Moyes etc. could manage that and they both had better teams. Show some respect. |

No clearly not, as I've just explained. Common sense is not in your repertoire. |

I am showing respect and I remember they had a striker called Marcus Stewart who banged in 30 goals that season and the lads were amazing. |
